Olivia Hawkins revealed her time as a boxing ring girl was 'empowering'.
Before Love Island fame, she worked part-time at matches and covered huge fights for rapper-turned-boxer KSI.
Previously speaking about the job, Liv said: 'Obviously they got rid of the Formula 1 grid girls, but I feel so empowered.
'Everyone within the boxing community makes me feel so welcome.
'And you always feel so supported with all the security and everything, but I just think every woman should embrace themselves and do whatever they want.
'Obviously, I get the odd wolf whistle, but I don't really tend to pay too much attention to that.
'Once I'm finished, I'm just ready to get in my car and get the heater on really.'

EastEnders actor looks unrecognisable 15 years after character's dramatic death Charlie Clements shot to fame as Bradley Branning in EastEnders, but the actor has undergone a dramatic transformation since leaving the BBC One soap Charlie Clements as Bradley Branning in EastEnders (Image: BBC ) Charlie Clements, best known for his role as Bradley Branning in EastEnders, has surprised fans with a complete image overhaul, now donning glasses and a beard, which is a sharp departure from his clean-cut on-screen character. The transformation of the actor who debuted in the BBC One soap back in 2006 and made his dramatic exit in February 2010 is remarkable. Charlie's character had an unforgettable send-off from the long-running soap during its first live instalment, which commemorated EastEnders' 25th anniversary. In a gripping sequence, Bradley Branning met his end falling from the rooftop of the Queen Vic, while evading the police, after vowing to defend his wife Stacey who had killed her assailant Archie Mitchell.
